Speaker 1: All right, News, Round of Information, overload hour toll free.
Speaker 1: Here's our number. It's eight hundred and nine to four
Speaker 1: one sean if you want to be a part of
Speaker 1: the program. All right. China today responded to reciprocal tariffs
Speaker 1: that Donald Trump has put on them. And then, by
Speaker 1: the way, and James, you can grab me the list.
Speaker 1: The list of products that China imposes tarifs on is
Speaker 1: absolutely positively massive. It's almost every single product that we sell. Now,
Speaker 1: China wants to access to American markets and our population.
Speaker 1: And you know what they also use, you know, pretty
Speaker 1: much slave labor. They got their sweatshops up and running
Speaker 1: where they pay people next to nothing in China, and
Speaker 1: they treat them horribly. They treat their workers horribly. And
Speaker 1: if that's the case, if they want to if they
Speaker 1: want to have a battle of the tariffs and they
Speaker 1: want to play chicken with Donald Trump, it's not going
Speaker 1: to work out. Well. Does that mean that maybe some
Speaker 1: prices on some items might temporarily go up? Yeah, till
Speaker 1: Americans figure out that Donald Trump is going to give
Speaker 1: them major incentives to build manufacturing centers here in this country,
Speaker 1: maybe not tax them at all or make them one
Speaker 1: hundred percent deductible the cost of building it, which will
Speaker 1: be great for manufacturing and great for American workers. Who
Speaker 1: is they're going to have high paying career jobs in
Speaker 1: all of these industries, from Apple to semiconductors and the
Speaker 1: Taiwanese chip company and ai and auto manufacturing, et cetera.
Speaker 1: You know, they in China, Just to give you an extent,
Speaker 1: China raise their tariffs in twenty nineteen sixty billion dollars
Speaker 1: on US products, sixty billion that includes raising products are
Speaker 1: more than five thousand items as high as twenty five percent.
Speaker 1: Now they're going to raise it another thirty four percent,
Speaker 1: which means that we'll be able to sell nothing in China.
Speaker 1: But guess what, They're not going to be able to
Speaker 1: sell anything here either. I mean everything. It impacts every
Speaker 1: single industry building materials, food that includes spirits and leather
Speaker 1: goods and clothing, and automobiles and fertilizer, and you name it, telecommunications, equipment, television,
Speaker 1: broadcast cameras, sailboats, motor boats, yachts, you name it. They're
Speaker 1: putting massive tariffs on it. And chicken and pork and
Speaker 1: soy and beef. They're hurting our ranchers. They're hurting our
Speaker 1: farm farmers, They're hurting our auto manufacturers, they're hurting everybody.
Speaker 1: I don't give a flying rip about the communist Chinese. Now,
Speaker 1: the interesting thing is, and I know Wall Street's skittish,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you what's going to happen is we already
Speaker 1: have nearly five trillion dollars committed because of the threat,
Speaker 1: just prior to the announcement earlier this week, just because
Speaker 1: of the threat of tariffs, you have five trillion dollars
Speaker 1: committed between foreign countries and American industry, including Apple's five
Speaker 1: hundred billion dollars, including the Taiwanese chip company, including Nissan
Speaker 1: and Honda, that we're going to build plants in Mexico,
Speaker 1: that are now going to build them right here in
Speaker 1: the USA and create high paying career jobs for Americans. Democrats,
Speaker 1: all of them, We've been playing all week. Janet Yelling
Speaker 1: and Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi and Barack Husain Obama
Speaker 1: all have been saying the same thing. And you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm just tired of hearing it. Let's go back to
Speaker 1: what Donald Trump said about tariffs that China has levied
Speaker 1: on us. He said this on Wednesday.
Speaker 2: China first row China sixty seven percent. That's tariffs charged
Speaker 2: to the USA, including currency manipulation and trade barriers, So
Speaker 2: sixty seven percent. I think you can for the most
Speaker 2: part see it. So sixty seven percent. So we're going
Speaker 2: to be charging a discounted reciprocal tariff of thirty four percent.
Speaker 2: I think. In other words, they charge us, we charge him,
Speaker 2: we charge m les. So how can any be upset?
Speaker 2: They will be because we never charged anybody anything, but
Speaker 2: now we're going to charge It was only seven years
Speaker 2: ago when I came in. We started with China charged
Speaker 2: that we took in hundreds of billions of dollars from
Speaker 2: China in tariffs, and they understood. Honestly, Presidency understood. He said, look,
Speaker 2: I understand, and the other countries and they all understand.
Speaker 3: We're gonna have to go.
Speaker 2: Through a little tough love maybe, but they all understand
Speaker 2: they're ripping us off, and they understood it.
Speaker 1: You have two choices. America continues to get ripped off
Speaker 1: and being taken advantage of, and we go the institutional way.
Speaker 1: It's sort of like, you know, if you're a conservative
Speaker 1: maga republican versus an institutionalized rhino. You don't want to
Speaker 1: rock the boat on anything. And that's been the that
Speaker 1: has been the posture of the US for fifty years,
Speaker 1: but it has always been the posture of the Democratic Party.
Speaker 1: I mentioned Janet Yale, and I mentioned Obama. I mentioned Schumer.
Speaker 1: Just there as a reminder, here's Pelosi advocating for teriffs.
Speaker 4: In terms of tariffs, I think it's interesting to note
Speaker 4: that the average US MFN tariff on Chinese goods coming
Speaker 4: into the United States is two percent, whereas the average
Speaker 4: Chinese to MFF tariff on US goods going into China
Speaker 4: is thirty five percent. Is that reciprocal? You have a
Speaker 4: serious threat not only to our relationship but to the
Speaker 4: industrialized world. And if there's one message that I want
Speaker 4: our colleagues to understand today and our constituents, is that
Speaker 4: on this day, your member of Congress could have drawn
Speaker 4: the line to say to the President of the United
Speaker 4: States do something about this US China trade relationship. That
Speaker 4: is a job loser for the United States.
Speaker 1: Oh, very different conversation anyway. Gordon Chang is with us,
Speaker 1: author of the book The Coming Collapse of China and
Speaker 1: the Great US China Tech War. Welcome to the program.
Speaker 1: I am fed up as an American that our country
Speaker 1: is being taken advantage of by friends and foe alike.
Speaker 1: I am fed up being a sucker nation. I am
Speaker 1: fed up with old school thinking. And I applaud the President.
Speaker 1: And it has reaped a lot of dividends in terms
Speaker 1: of commitments for investments and trillions and trillions of dollars.
Speaker 1: And I guarantee you most of these countries are going
Speaker 1: to come crawling back to the table because they want
Speaker 1: access to our markets. If people could just hold the
Speaker 1: line and stay patient, you know, for more than forty
Speaker 1: eight hours, for crying out.
Speaker 5: Loud, You're absolutely right, Sean. The important point here is
Speaker 5: that if you drive through the Sound southern communities, if
Speaker 5: you drive through Detroit, you will see American communities that
Speaker 5: have been devastated by the loss of factories to China
Speaker 5: and other countries. And the loss of those factories was
Speaker 5: because of policies not only in the nineteen nineties when
Speaker 5: you played that Nancy Pelosi clip, but also after China
Speaker 5: joined the World Trade Organization in late two thousand and one.
Speaker 5: And you're absolutely right. We have in China slave labor
Speaker 5: wigers Kazakhs and other Turkic minorities, in addition to hand
Speaker 5: Chinese working in horrific Christian conditions. We can't ask American
Speaker 5: workers to compete against slave labor. As matter of fact,
Speaker 5: I remember eighteen sixty we fought a war over labor practices.
Speaker 5: We cannot allow slaves to compete with Americans. We have
Speaker 5: to reindustrialize our country.
Speaker 3: So I am so.
Speaker 5: Happy that you have talked about this in such meaningful terms.
Speaker 1: Well it's meaningful. I mean, there really are two options.
Speaker 1: Either we continue to allow countries to take advantage of us,
Speaker 1: abuse our friendship. In the case of allies, you know,
Speaker 1: I expect it from foes like China. I expect them
Speaker 1: from Russia. I expect them from Iran and maybe North Korea.
Speaker 1: I don't expect it from Japan, don't I don't expect
Speaker 1: it from Canada, I don't expect it from from European countries.
Speaker 1: Almost all the countries that I mentioned benefit from American security,
Speaker 1: an American investment in national defense, and are counting on
Speaker 1: us if that moment ever comes comes in there in
Speaker 1: our lifetime that they need help. And yet they're abusing
Speaker 1: American taxpayers. So we either let them continue to basically
Speaker 1: rop from us, or we take a stand and say
Speaker 1: your choice, free affair trade or reciprocal tariffs. I don't
Speaker 1: think you can get any more fair than that. That's
Speaker 1: not a complicated concept. You don't need to graduate from
Speaker 1: Harvard or MIT to figure that out.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but if you graduate from Harvard or m I
Speaker 5: T or you go to Georgetown, basically you're becoming stupid
Speaker 5: because you're learning all sorts of things that make no
Speaker 5: sense in the real world. They only make sense if
Speaker 5: you go to Harvard, Yale, or Georgetown. So absolutely, we
Speaker 5: need to have reciprocal tariffs. We need to reindustrialize, and
Speaker 5: let's not be intimidated by Wall Street or the Chinese
Speaker 5: for that matter. You started by talking about the thirty
Speaker 5: four percent terriffs that the Chinese imposed on us. Look,
Speaker 5: they've got a smaller economy. Their economy is less than
Speaker 5: two thirds the size of ours, and they're the trade
Speaker 5: surplus country. Last year, China ran a merchandised trade surplus
Speaker 5: against the United States of two hundred and ninety five
Speaker 5: point four billion dollars. Trade surplus countries and trade wars
Speaker 5: have no ammunition. President Trump will win this unless he's
Speaker 5: intimidated by Wall Street, and I'm sure he will not be.
Speaker 1: He talked about this when he gave a speech on Wednesday.
Speaker 1: He said, there will be short term pain. We know
Speaker 1: that Wall Street is notoriously skittish. We've witnessed it the
Speaker 1: last two days.
Speaker 4: Is it.
Speaker 1: Is it a little bit of short term pain?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 4: It is.
Speaker 1: Do I think it's going to reverse itself, probably a
Speaker 1: lot sooner than people are predicting.
Speaker 6: I do.
Speaker 1: Do I believe all these people, these naysayers, are going
Speaker 1: to have egg on their face when the money starts
Speaker 1: pouring in. Yes, I do do. I have a strong
Speaker 1: faith that these countries desperately want access to American markets,
Speaker 1: and the outcry from manufacturers abroad is going to be loud,
Speaker 1: and those countries are going to be pressured into making
Speaker 1: a free and fair trade deal with the US. That's
Speaker 1: all going to happen. That's going to percolate up to
Speaker 1: the surface, and America just has to for this interim
Speaker 1: period of time. I don't think it's going to be
Speaker 1: longer than a week or two. Just suck it up.
Speaker 1: Understand how markets work. This is institutional change, and it's
Speaker 1: a little bit of a shock to the system. But
Speaker 1: once people grow accustomed to the new way of doing things,
Speaker 1: then they're going to see the benefits of.
Speaker 5: It, absolutely, And I don't think the pain will be
Speaker 5: as great as people say. If we go back to
Speaker 5: President Trump's first round of tariffs on China in twenty eighteen,
Speaker 5: China absorbed somewhere between seventy five to eighty one percent
Speaker 5: of the cost of those tariffs. Although you had a
Speaker 5: lot of smart people in New York and Washington just
Speaker 5: wail about how there would be inflation with those twenty
Speaker 5: eighteen tariffs, it didn't happen, Sean. And this time China
Speaker 5: has even more incentive to absorb the President Trump's tariffs,
Speaker 5: and they already are doing so from anecdotal information that
Speaker 5: we are hearing from trade specialists. So I think, yes,
Speaker 5: there will be pain, but this is necessary because we've
Speaker 5: had decades of misguided trade policy. But the pain is
Speaker 5: not going to be as bad as everyone thinks, because
Speaker 5: everyone needs access to the world's best market and that's ours.
Speaker 1: That's so well said. All right, quick break more with
Speaker 1: Gordon Chang on the other side. Toll free number is
Speaker 1: eight hundred and ninety four one. Sean if you want
Speaker 1: to be a part of the program, continue now with
Speaker 1: Gordon Shang, who is with us talking about China and
Speaker 1: they want a tariff fight with the US. Fine, let's
Speaker 1: say let's have the terrify. They need access to our
Speaker 1: markets big time. You know, I've always said on this
Speaker 1: program that the stock market is not my barometer in
Speaker 1: terms of the health of the economy. Austin Goulsby even
Speaker 1: said the economy is really strong right now. And he's
Speaker 1: not exactly a supply side conservative in terms of his thinking.
Speaker 1: He was used to be on the Council of Economic
Speaker 1: Advisors for Barack Obama. For crying out loud, I've had
Speaker 1: many a fight with him over economic issues over the years.
Speaker 1: I end up being right most of the time. But
Speaker 1: he's actually a good guy with a great personality, and
Speaker 1: he is not wrong this time when he says the
Speaker 1: economies and the fundamentals of the economies are strong.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: We do have economic news that came out today. Most
Speaker 1: of it is very good and in case people are
Speaker 1: watching or listening to this program, you know, first of all,
Speaker 1: nobody was howling it with this feigned outrage when Joe
Speaker 1: Biden Barack Obama imposed tariffs. Joe Biden imposed them on
Speaker 1: Mexico and China and Russia and other countries. Obama did
Speaker 1: the same. Nobody's paying attention to the fact that oil
Speaker 1: prices now have dropped to the lowest level since twenty
Speaker 1: twenty one. Nobody's paying attention or seems to care that.
Speaker 1: While the Democrats and the legacy media mob is screaming
Speaker 1: about Wall Street that in their most recent survey, the
Speaker 1: trade group pointed out that consumer spending is not unraveling.
Speaker 1: The National Retail Federation reported two days ago that it
Speaker 1: expects twenty twenty five retail sales the top five point
Speaker 1: four trillion dollars growing anywhere between two point seven and
Speaker 1: three point seven percent, well above what they sold in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Online sales can rise as much as
Speaker 1: nine percent. The US economy added more jobs at a
Speaker 1: faster pace in March. I would call that the Trump
Speaker 1: effect and his policies even are not even in place yet.
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of good economic news today, But
Speaker 1: of course that doesn't you know, if it bleeds, it leads.
Speaker 1: If it's negative, they want to and it's Trump involved,
Speaker 1: they want to be negative.
Speaker 5: One of the great things about the March job report
Speaker 5: is that there was an increase in private sector jobs.
Speaker 5: If you go back in the Biden administration, there were
Speaker 5: increases in employment months a month, but those were government jobs.
Speaker 5: And the last thing that we need is a larger government,
Speaker 5: because the federal government is far too big for the
Speaker 5: United States at this moment. President Trump is changing that.
Speaker 5: It's going to be painful, but having private sector jobs
Speaker 5: is the only path to endure in prosperity.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt about it anyway, Gordon saying, do you
Speaker 1: really think that China's going to collapse?
Speaker 5: I think that China right now is panicking because they're
Speaker 5: only hope to rescue a grim situation. They're not growing,
Speaker 5: They're probably at zero or below. Their only hope is
Speaker 5: to export more to the United States, and that ain't happening.
Speaker 5: So yes, I think that they're in real dire I've
Speaker 5: been wrong about timing, you know, But nonetheless we can
Speaker 5: see it coming because the Chinese system is not sustainable.
Speaker 5: It is only survived because we allow, through indulgent policies
Speaker 5: to buy Chinese goods made under horrible conditions. You know,
Speaker 5: I'm very glad you played that Nancy Pelosi clip. Because
Speaker 5: she was right, then Bill Clinton was wrong. We should
Speaker 5: not have allowed China into the global trading system.
Speaker 1: Appreciate you. Gordon Chang eight hundred and ninety four one
Speaker 1: Shawn talking about being made in America. If there's one
Speaker 1: thing that you need to own that's made in America,
Speaker 1: I don't think the American flag is appropriate. You don't
Speaker 1: really want to buy your American flag that's made in China. Anyway.
Speaker 1: Every Allegiance flag is hand sewn by craftsmen and women
Speaker 1: in Charleston, South Carolina. Every single component from the white
Speaker 1: ash flagpole to the spinners to the mounts, they were
Speaker 1: all sourced right here in America. So when you buy
Speaker 1: an Allegiance flag, you're supporting American job, You're supporting an
Speaker 1: American business. And the cool story is it's it's quintessentially American,
Speaker 1: started by three guys in their garage, three fronts. You
Speaker 1: just go to their website, Show Allegiance dot com one word,
Speaker 1: Show Allegiance dot Com and experience the difference of an
Speaker 1: American made flag. If you use the promo code Hannity,
Speaker 1: you're going to get free shipping, all right. That's show
Speaker 1: Allegiance dot Com and under the promo code Hannity at
Speaker 1: checkout for American flags, just like the one I'm going
Speaker 1: to be putting up this weekend, made the American Way.
Speaker 1: We'll continue.
Speaker 7: You're on the Sean Hannity Show, a place where free
Speaker 7: speech and the First Amendment are still alive and well
Speaker 7: get your dose of independence and liberty every weekday right
Speaker 7: here with Sean Hi.
Speaker 1: Twenty five now until the top of the hour, eight
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety four one, Shawn our number of this Friday.
Speaker 1: If you want to be a part of the program,
Speaker 1: I will tip my hat to Congressional Republicans as they
Speaker 1: now try to codify President Trump's maximum pressure campaign against
Speaker 1: Iran with a ten bill legislative package that would sanction
Speaker 1: the leadership in Tehran, the Mullas of Iran that's going
Speaker 1: to cut off its access to cash, strangle the regime's
Speaker 1: regional terror proxies. According to the Washington Free Beacon, the
Speaker 1: toughest Iranian sanctions package ever proposed by Congress, according to
Speaker 1: the Republican Study Committee, the House's largest GOP caucus, which
Speaker 1: is leading the effort. So we'll see what happens. I
Speaker 1: hope they do, and I'll tell you. Why, because you
Speaker 1: have tens and tens of thousands of Israelis that have
Speaker 1: been displaced, and if it were not for the International
Speaker 1: Fellowship of Christians and Jews, we have proudly partnered with them.
Speaker 1: They have been on the ground since day one on
Speaker 1: October seventh, helping people with humanitarian assistants. Because of your
Speaker 1: general it's been eighteen months. This country has been fighting
Speaker 1: for its survival against radical Islamic terrorists eighteen months. And
Speaker 1: with your continued support, they're going to be able to
Speaker 1: provide all that humanitarian assistance. But they do so much more.
Speaker 1: They provide these mobile bomb shelters, armed security vehicles, ambulances,
Speaker 1: firefighting equipment, flack jackets, bulletproof vests, so much more. But
Speaker 1: your generous donation is desperately needed to ensure that the
Speaker 1: people of Israel are safe as they now fight for
Speaker 1: their very existence. This is a real war against radical Islamis.
Speaker 1: It's really like a seven front war that they've been battling. Anyway,
Speaker 1: Please go to their website. It SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. That's
Speaker 1: one word, SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. They have a toll free
Speaker 1: number its eight eight eight four eight eight IFCJ eight
Speaker 1: eight eight four eight eight, IFCJ two day, and your
Speaker 1: gift is greatly appreciated. It really is and desperately needed.
Speaker 1: After Butler pa friend of the program. He's the editor
Speaker 1: of Breitbart, John conn Uh. He also is a musical artist,
Speaker 1: and he came up with the song. It became the
Speaker 1: number one in every genre on every music chart. And
Speaker 1: he has a new he has a new song I
Speaker 1: will tell you about in a second. But the song
Speaker 1: was called Fighter, and it went so viral that he
Speaker 1: actually went on the road. Like Lee Greenwood was singing
Speaker 1: God Bless the USA, he was singing Fighter at Trump
Speaker 1: events throughout the campaign. And you know, I've said this
Speaker 1: many times that I'm I'm in the communication business. I
Speaker 1: do radio and I do television, but I don't think
Speaker 1: it's the most powerful form of communication. I would argue
Speaker 1: movies and music. You know, I don't make well, maybe Linda,
Speaker 1: I might make you cry occasionally. I might make liberals
Speaker 1: cry occasionally, but I don't make you cry. I don't
Speaker 1: make I don't. I don't make I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: make Linda cry. For the records, just for the records.
Speaker 1: I'm like everything He's gonna be writing in like what's
Speaker 1: going on Kennedy makes Linda Croye. If you're not can
Speaker 1: hear that tomorrow? Like all right, it's gonna blow up
Speaker 1: over the week out instead of people going to Hannity
Speaker 1: dot com clicking on the Tesla contest and putting in
Speaker 1: the word of the day Sean. And you can register
Speaker 1: today tomorrow, on Sunday, uh and every day through April
Speaker 1: the eleventh. And I'll pick one lucky what we'll pick
Speaker 1: one lucky winner. I won't pick it, and well I
Speaker 1: will buy them at Tesla just to show solidarity with
Speaker 1: a lawn. Anyway, our friend John con that song went
Speaker 1: number one. He has a new song out about faith,
Speaker 1: which has carried him through the anti Semitism, the Palisades fires,
Speaker 1: the loss of his home. So, by the way, they've
Speaker 1: allowed four building permits in the area around the Pacific
Speaker 1: Palisades for people to rebuild.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 1: And I'm told by friends of mine out there that
Speaker 1: big companies like Blackrock are coming in and buying massive,
Speaker 1: you know, amounts of plots of land because people don't
Speaker 1: want to rebuild and then lose in a fortune. And
Speaker 1: they're all having problems with their insurance companies. It's terrible. Anyway,
Speaker 1: he also experienced the loss of his home to the fires.
Speaker 1: His mom passed away. And you know, out of pain
Speaker 1: sometimes comes great artistry, and that's what I would say
Speaker 1: comes out of this new song. It's called Fingerprints. I
Speaker 1: get goosebumps just here in that I got my fingerprints
Speaker 1: on you. Anyway, John con I have no idea why
Speaker 1: the bright Bart editor. You should be on the road
Speaker 1: bringing your music and inspiring people. It's really interesting to
Speaker 1: me because Fighter I kind of look at as more
Speaker 1: of a country song, and this song obviously is a
Speaker 1: song of faith and called Fingerprints, and it reminds me
Speaker 1: a lot. And these are my two favorite music genres,
Speaker 1: which is why I'm bringing those up country and I
Speaker 1: love Christian contemporary music. By the way, I urge everybody
Speaker 1: if you want to see the defining concert watch twenty
Speaker 1: eighteen Michael W. Smith Bridgestone Arena. You could pull it
Speaker 1: up on YouTube. But first of all, it's great to
Speaker 1: have you back, number one. Number two. I'm so sorry
Speaker 1: you lost your home. I'm so sorry about the passing
Speaker 1: of your mom. When I read your post quote, I've
Speaker 1: experienced tremendous loss recently, but in these past few years
Speaker 1: I found something even greater, something I never anticipated. Faith.
Speaker 1: It's never too late, and I hope this song reaches
Speaker 1: even just a few who might believe otherwise. Wow, I'm
Speaker 1: so sorry. You know, we all go through pain in life.
Speaker 1: We all take our hits, and life can be really painful.
Speaker 1: And out of your pain, clearly your art comes through.
Speaker 8: Well. Thanks for having me, Sean. You know what's interesting
Speaker 8: about these two songs, Sean, is that they kind of
Speaker 8: predated these really rough events that have happened. For example,
Speaker 8: Fighter that I wrote for President Trump, that was written
Speaker 8: before the assassination attempt, when everybody thoughts I had written
Speaker 8: it in response, and then, by.
Speaker 1: The way, count me among them. I thought that that's
Speaker 1: a yeah.
Speaker 8: And when so when he stood up and yelled fight, Fight, Fight,
Speaker 8: you know, I got goosebumps all down my body because
Speaker 8: you know, I wrote the song with a guy named
Speaker 8: Chris Wong.
Speaker 5: We had it ready to go.
Speaker 8: I called him, I said, I think we need to
Speaker 8: get this song out and Fingerprints, which was originally you
Speaker 8: know I was. I didn't grow up with faith and
Speaker 8: God in my family. I grew up in Godless La
Speaker 8: which which you know about there and and just in
Speaker 8: the past couple of years, I started exploring it and
Speaker 8: Fingerprints was a musical exploration of that journey that I
Speaker 8: was on. And after I wrote the song, of those
Speaker 8: series of events that you mentioned happened, the loss of
Speaker 8: my mom, I had a breakup with someone I was
Speaker 8: living with. My dad fell and needed surgery, and then
Speaker 8: my home burned down, and I still hadn't released the
Speaker 8: song yet. And you know, once I got through the fires,
Speaker 8: I thought to myself, you know, what better time to
Speaker 8: release the song about faith than during a storm when
Speaker 8: you're being tested. And that's why I released it just recently.
Speaker 1: How come people get these songs because and I would
Speaker 1: assume you would go to your favorite know either what, Spotify, iTunes.
Speaker 1: I don't even know all the places to go because
Speaker 1: I have my kids do it for me. Literally, they
Speaker 1: take my phone. They're like, Dad, i'll do it. I'll
Speaker 1: do it. You're too slow.
Speaker 8: So right, well, there are all the streamers on iTunes
Speaker 8: and Amazon, Spotify, and it's just Google or search John
Speaker 8: con jln Kahn and you can find them or find
Speaker 8: me on Instagram. Their links there. And I really appreciate
Speaker 8: you having.
Speaker 9: Me on Sehn.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm just going to say to people, all of us,
Speaker 1: and this transcends race, this transcends gender, this transcends you know,
Speaker 1: whether you have money or you don't have money. Because
Speaker 1: I've lived poor and now I'm a lot better off
Speaker 1: than I was, it doesn't matter. Everyone has their atom
Speaker 1: shift to deal with in this life, and life can
Speaker 1: be hard. And for me, I go to the same
Speaker 1: place you now go to, and that's to my faith,
Speaker 1: that's to my belief in God. And you know, people
Speaker 1: ask me all the time, why do you think you're successful.
Speaker 1: I said, well, I work hard, but really the other
Speaker 1: reason is I've been blessed by God. I really believe that.
Speaker 1: And so yeah, I hope people will download it's it's
Speaker 1: j o wn k a h n And just go
Speaker 1: to wherever you download your music, and the first one
Speaker 1: you want to download is Fighter. His newest song is
Speaker 1: called Fingerprints, and it will inspire you.
Speaker 3: John.
Speaker 1: We appreciate you, man, God bless you. And we'll put
Speaker 1: it up on Hannidi dot com and we'll put it
Speaker 1: out on social media.
Speaker 8: Thank you so much, John, I appreciate it all right, man, And.
Speaker 1: We're praying for you too and your family. A lot
Speaker 1: to go through. Man, you think you're having a tough
Speaker 1: day today, think of what this guy has been through.
Speaker 1: Let's go to ali var in Arizona. Oliver, how are
Speaker 1: you glad you called, sir?
Speaker 6: It's a honor to talk to you. First time caller,
Speaker 6: new listener. I've wanted to I'm experiencing this Trump derangement
Speaker 6: syndrome first hand.
Speaker 3: I wanted to share my story with you.
Speaker 6: I get your advice. I have an older brother. He's
Speaker 6: highly educated as a PhD in sociology. He's a professor,
Speaker 6: a tenured he's well known in his field. He's published.
Speaker 6: And when he found out that I voted for Trump,
Speaker 6: he refused to be the best man in my wedding
Speaker 6: and also to attend my wedding. And it took my
Speaker 6: elderly mother begging him to attend the wedding and he
Speaker 6: finally did. But things have never been the same since then.
Speaker 6: He just has this emotional reaction and it's just it's
Speaker 6: sad how these people, some people are reacting like that.
Speaker 1: Well he could you know, some people get educated, and
Speaker 1: he might be highly educated, but they get you know,
Speaker 1: educated at all the common sense that they were born with.
Speaker 1: All right, there are really two choices here for you,
Speaker 1: and I have a preference of the two, but I'll
Speaker 1: give you both. One is to not give an Adam schiff,
Speaker 1: and this is his decision. You move on with your life.
Speaker 1: You don't try to make contact with your brother. This
Speaker 1: is on him, it's not on you. Your conscience is clear. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's option one. Option two, which would be my preferred option,
Speaker 1: would be stay in touch with your brother. Make sure
Speaker 1: you make it very very clear to him that you
Speaker 1: don't want politics to separate the two of you, that
Speaker 1: you would agree not to talk politics with him if
Speaker 1: that would make him feel better and wouldn't trigger his
Speaker 1: his woke little you know backside. And you don't have
Speaker 1: to say it that way, but say it in a
Speaker 1: nice way, and that you're my brother. I want a
Speaker 1: relationship with you. My door is always open. I'll check
Speaker 1: in with you frequently, and I hope you change your
Speaker 1: mind and just be very loving about it and don't
Speaker 1: give up on your brother, and hope that it works
Speaker 1: out one day. You know it looks there sometimes it
Speaker 1: just here's just the reality. It doesn't matter if you're
Speaker 1: a family member or not a family member. There's some
Speaker 1: people in life you don't get along with. And then
Speaker 1: there's the Christian side of me that says, you know what,
Speaker 1: you know, pray for your brother and keep preaching out
Speaker 1: to him and just just love him, even though he
Speaker 1: doesn't obviously have the capacity at this moment and his
Speaker 1: life to love you back. Which one do you think
Speaker 1: you're going to go with?
Speaker 3: I'm trying to go the more Christian side, but.
Speaker 1: It's a good you made the right You're not going
Speaker 1: to regret that choice.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's just sad how these people have this emotional reaction,
Speaker 6: and there is just sad.
Speaker 3: He's my brother and he reacted that way.
Speaker 6: Kind of makes me think back to the stories during
Speaker 6: the Civil War era, where you know, brothers were fighting
Speaker 6: against brothers.
Speaker 3: I mean, this isn't quite that extreme, but it's just
Speaker 3: it's just it's bad.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question. Did somebody else become
Speaker 1: your best man?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 1: Is it somebody that you know you love and loves
Speaker 1: your back, cares about you.
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 6: And then after I had him be the best man,
Speaker 6: my mom talked to my brother into attending and he
Speaker 6: did attend, and he was one of the grooms men.
Speaker 3: But it was just kind of very awkward, and yes
Speaker 3: it is.
Speaker 1: I feel sorry for you, you know. I mean, you
Speaker 1: want your brother to be a best man. He turns
Speaker 1: you down. That's kind of a little bit of a blow.
Speaker 1: But you're tougher than that. Uh, we'll pray for your brother.
Speaker 1: Hopefully he has a change your heart.
Speaker 3: Hi baby Trump, Trumper writer or die, thank you.
Speaker 1: Let me tell no one's going to pressure me out
Speaker 1: of the politics I believe in. And you know that
Speaker 1: was one of the reasons I left New York. I
Speaker 1: was hated. Now, Linda would give you very different advice.
Speaker 1: Your advice would be tell them the f off, wouldn't
Speaker 1: it be?
Speaker 5: Sure?
Speaker 7: Would I have.
Speaker 9: Family members I don't talk to anymore because they decided
Speaker 9: not to like me for my conservative beliefs.
Speaker 1: I love to have a conversation. So you know, because
Speaker 1: you associate with me too, they're not worth your time.
Speaker 8: Huh.
Speaker 1: How many people don't like you because you associate with me?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 9: It's funny. That's actually gotten less. It's more just about
Speaker 9: I'm not even kidding you. I think the overwhelming disgust
Speaker 9: for Trump without you know, pun intendent kind of Trump's
Speaker 9: the hate of everything else. Right, It's like, oh, you
Speaker 9: like Trump?
Speaker 1: You know we hate you. It's obscene. That was my
Speaker 1: life in New York, which is so different from my
Speaker 1: life today in the Free State of Florida. But I
Speaker 1: ever mentioned I live in the Free State of Florida.
Speaker 1: I think I mentioned it once or twice.
Speaker 9: I had no idea we should hit the breaking news sounder, bro.
Speaker 1: I know, breaking news amazing now, it is amazing how
Speaker 1: much coverage that. By the way, if I if I
Speaker 1: walk down the street, I'm in the local paper. There's
Speaker 1: nothing I can do. It's unreal. All Right, that's gonna
